The Lucky old Gentleman.

When Fred Schwartz visited iva last
week a number of the railroad employees
and Others were very anxious to convert
any portion of their belongings into the
coin of the realm. There seemed to be
an epidemic of financial embarrassment
among the usually prosperous residents.
This aspect Of affairs astonished and puz-
zled Mr., Schwartz, and he inquired the
cause OF the apparent tightness in the
money market. Several shamefaced men
falteringly confessed between curses that
IAN old duck from Douglas" had pauper-
lied them in various quiet poker games.
The curiosity of the Cheyenne man was
aroused, and he determined to learn the
identity of the def manipulation of the
p%asteboards. A more conservative VIC
tim described the expert as "a heavy
built, fat and very quiet gentleman, who
spoke rapidly with an English accent"
That settled it. The quiet old gentleman
was none other than VIM. INITIAL, the
Wyoming coal king, who now plays a
game for amusement rather than for the
possibility of enriching himself.

THE WYOMING TANK LINE.
L.. T. Horu in New Enterprises and the
Skinner Line TO Fremont.

[Omaha Herald
From a gentleman who arrived at the
Willard yesterday from the western part
of the state, it was learned that an i'm
portant change is about to be made in the
officials of the South Platte division of the
Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley rail
road. L. L. Horn, who has been long
and favorably known as the superintend-
ent Of the division, was about to resign
voluntarily 10 accept the position of gem
eral manager Of the Wyoming Pipe Line
company. The company has equipped
itself with tank cars, and is now in opera
ton between Bassett and Inman, and sup
plies those points and all intermediate ter
ritOry with illuminating fluid. 1t is pro-
posed to gradually extend the line to
Omaha and to arrange for using the tank
cars on the return trip for the distri-
button, through Wyoming, of the
fish and fish spawn from the hatchery
of which Bob" Hughes is manager.
Mr.. Horn will, too, accept the vice presi-
dency Of the Skinner line" a Wyo-
ming coal oil company, which proposes to
use Dead creek and the streams to which
it is tributary for means of oil transpor.
tation to Fremont. There the skimmers
will be erected, and the oil will be taken
from the surface of the water as it flows
by. You may say on my responsibility"
said the Herald informant, that Mr..
Horn, representing the Wyoming Tank
Line company, in his premature capacity
as general manager, has refused the ad-
vances of the Standard Oil company,
looking to a consolidation of the two
gigantic interests. The Wyoming Tank
Line company will stand alone despite the
wishes of its rivalsO

KICK AGAINST THE SCHEME.
northern Laramie Protests Against the
Douglas idea.
To the Editor Of THE LEApER.

10 the Editor Of THE LEADER.
LusK, Dec. ia petition asking for
a division of Laramie county on or near
the Laramie river and protesting against
the Douglas scheme is being signed by the
tax payers of Northern Laramie county TO
a man. The petition asks, in case it is tho
sense of the legislature that a special act
cannot be passed, hat a general enabling
act be passed for the relief of such coun.
ties as may now, or in the future, desire
new county organization.
Hon. j. H. Ford writes from New
York that he wishes to be placed on record
as tavorlng the measures asked for by the
petition, and as opposed to the desires of
Douglas. In fact. Northern Laramie
county will speak to the legislature as one
man.
There certainly can be no reason in
%annexing us to Northern Albany and Car
bon counties against u will, and there
IS no doubt that the legislative assembly
Will see the unfairness of forcing us into q
connection SO distasteful to us.
Did our neighbors desire a county Of
their own, we would place no obstacle in
their way, but when they wish to force us
INTO a county organization more repugnant
to us than our present situation. we will
not willingly submit.
There is sufficient valuation north of the
Platte river to start US off in better shape
than any new county ever organized in
the territory. And even north of the
seventh standard parallel these remarks
are true.
We will ask the legislature to give us q
county by ourselves or else to leave us as
we are now situated. A. Il. O.

Smith and falling upon him.
Round 43-Smith, following the advice
of his seconds, led off with his left with a
lot of spite in his delivery, and IN return
for his kind attention Kilrain got home q
straight one from the shoulder on Smiths
stomach. Smith raped one on Kilrain's 8
head, then the latter closed with him and
sgsin brought him down. Odds were now
laid on Kilrain.
In the 10th round both were very weak,
and seemed more inclined to close and
wrestle than fight.
Kilrain had ali the best of the 50th round.
When Smith came round again both we're
strong on their legs, though Smiths party
was growing very anxious.
Cutting q long story short, up to the
Goth round Kllrain held the advantage,
and had knocked Smith down three times,
while Smith had only once succeeded in
knocking Kilrain down. One hundred
rounds had been fought in one hour and
forty minutes. Both men, however, kept
strong on their legs. fhe light was now
fast fading, and the cold bitter. Smiths
seconds repeatedly urged that the time
Keepers could not see their watches, nor

SIX rounds, but Kilrain was alwyas game,

irgss quickly as at the start, when Mr..
Atkinson orueTed an adjournment of the
contest until the next day amid loud
cheers, the spectators being delighted with
the pluck shown by both men. Just as
the fighting ceased snow began falling.
IN Sullivan's opinion, today's fight was
the gamest witnessed in many years be-
tween big men.

matters affecting the wages of the miners of

ators who are paying 10 cents say they can
not reasonably be expected to pay the ad-
vance and compete with those who do not.
At the meeting tomorrow notification

An uncOnstitutIonal ordinane ee

CHICAGO, DECEMBER 19.-Judge McAIIls-
ter, this morning, decided that the city or
diDance prohibiting the sale OF liquor to
minors was void. a few days ago, Oscar
Matthia, who keeps a concert saloon, was
arrested for selling wine to Linnie st.
Clair, sixteen-y ear-old girl, who was ab-
Quoted by young man whom she had met
in concert saloons. Matthia applied for
release under the habeas corpus act. The
Judge held that the portion of the ordi-
nance which revoked a saloon-keeper' q
license on q second ofense is un-
constitutional. Among the founda-
tions for this opinion is that the
general Incorporation act does not give the
City Council power to pass such an ordi-
nance. The act gives the Council power TO
levy fines not to exceed $500, and to i'm
prison the offender not to exceed six
months. Forfeiture OF license is neither
fine nor imprisonment. Again. the dram
shop act provides punishment to saloon
keepers selling to minors, except in cases
where the minor brings written request
from the parents. The evidence punished
the seller or giver away Of drink, regardless
of such request, thereby contravening the
statute. Matthia was discharged, and the
decision gives great Joy to the saloon
keepers.

BIG FIRE AT louisville.

The Entire Town Reported to be Burning
indianapolis Sends Relief.
AT 80 o'clock this morning a message
was received over the telegraph wires from
the Council at Zionsville, saying:
"Town burning up. Send help at once"
Chief Webster, of the indianapolis Fire
Department. was notified, and he promptly
ordered out Company No. l, with engine,
wagons and a section of hose, to go to
the scene Of the conhsgrstion. The
Big Four placed special train
of two fat cars and caboose at the disposal
OF the department. A quick lun was prom.
ised, and itwas thought the company could
reach the town in time to furnish the
needed relief.
Some idea of the extent of the fire may
be formed when it is stated that-though
fifteen miles away-the illumination OF the
heavens could be plainly seen from this
city. At North Indianapolis the blaze
itself was visible, Both telephone and tel
egrapbic communication was cat of and it
was impossible to obtain any of the details
of the fire. 1t was reported that most OF
the town had already been destroyed.
At 2:15 O'Clock it was learned that the
fire originated in W. L. Gregory's store,
the largest in the town, which was en-.
tirely destroyed, and the flames then
spread to other building, reaching the
depot and several houses in the vicinity.
When this word came the fire was still
spreading at dangerous rate.
LATER.-After engine No. had
been loaded, and just as the train was
starting to pull out, second telegram
was received countermanding theirequest
for help. 1t stated that Eagle Creek was
at too great q distance from the
town to furnish water supply,
and that the department could de-
no good. The dispatch stated further that
the business portion of the town was do
stroyed, but the rest would be saved.
IZionsville is prosperous town of |, 1900 souls,
situated on Eagle Creek and the Big -Four Rail-
road, in Boone County, thirteen miles south
east Of Lebanon, the county seat, and fifteen
miles northwest OF Indianapolis. II has four
churches, a graded school, opera house, two
hotels, water-works, two banks and weekly
